The old fortress has a long history. There are many small European buildings around, which are worth watching.

    The San Juan fortress was built by a Spanish military engineering team in 1589. The Central American archipelago of San Juan was first occupied by Spain in 1521 and a castle was built on a small island at the entrance to the Gulf. It is a major Spanish base in the Americas.

    San Juan was once a Spanish dependency, and since it was an important economic and strategic position in the Caribbean throat, Puerto Rico was bought by the United States. These two fortresses have now become popular tourist attractions.

    It's a very historic fortress. It's dark and beautiful facing the sea.

    There are many places worth remembering and discovering in the old city of San Juan. The cobblestone trail extends between many old Spanish-style buildings. The fortress built by the Spaniards supported him against many attacks by British and French fleets, making it the earliest settlement in the United States. Nowadays, the old wall of the military base can also see some bullet marks, pits and holes, as if people were back to the era of ice and fire.

    La Fortaleza-Palacio de Santa Catalina is a building near the old city wall of San Juan. The main tone is white, very small and fresh.
